I needed to make dinner in a hurry one cold evening when I didn't have much on hand, so I came up with this spicy, flavorful soup. My kids ask me to make it often. Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef or ground turkey |
1 large can (28 ounces) enchilada sauce |
1 enchilada sauce can full of water |
1 seasoning packet from beef flavor ramen noodles (save noodles for another use) |
1/2 pound frozen mixed vegetables |
1/4 pound tri-color rotini pasta, cooked al dente and drained |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, brown the ground beef or turkey and drain off any fat. (If you prefer a stronger flavor, at this point you can add 1 packet of taco seasoning mix and 1/2 cup of water to the meat and simmer for 5 minutes before proceeding).
2. Stir in the enchilada sauce, water, seasoning packet, and frozen mixed vegetables. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer until the vegetables are your desired tenderness.
3. Add the cooked pasta and season the soup with salt and pepper to your liking.
